Bio-light CookingWhat is Bio-light Cooking?

Bio-light cooking is all about the selection, preparation and processing of a wide variety of foods in order to produce healthy, nutritious, well-balanced and tasty meals. Bio-light cooking is a nutritional lifestyle that promotes daily awareness of healthier food, develops healthier nutritional habits, and may also serve as a trigger to lose weight and keep it off permanently. It consists of 3 meals and 2 snacks.

In the Bio-light Diet, the general scheme is the “dissociated diet” in which carbohydrates in the form of non-refined cereals are included at breakfast and lunch, while animal proteins are eaten for dinner. Dinner is always consisting of warm food in order to help the digestive organs. At the end of each meal, a warm herbal infusion (tea) is recommended.

Fruitis included at breakfast, before the meals and is also a good option for the snack in between meals: we suggest to avoid fruits after meals in order to avoid fermentation processes
